Let’s keep the funds freely flowing into our community

The Powers What Be convened the day after the recall election to assess the possibilities following what many believed to be nothing more than a divisive event filled with nothing but turmoil.

Those gathered in the meeting area — a secluded booth in the back of a smokeless local eatery — found the recall election to be a treasure-trove for the future of Pueblo.

“Ladies and gentlemen: More than $1 million in outside revenue coming into our market from political committees and the very rich,” a fat man seated at the head of the table said between bites of his slopper. “We have to seize this golden goose by the throat and milk it for all it’s worth!”

The other diners looked askance at the group, perhaps reacting to what turned out to be a very poor example of imagery.
